It has a very strong smell and it is like a long thin dark green leaf and it has a very soft velvety feelign when you rub it between you fingers. I was told it was Thyme but I don't think so becasue Thyme looks different.

Not a lot to go on. Most herbs have a strong smell. Is it any of these?

I don't think it's thyme, thyme has a purplish hue... good luck finding out what your mystery herb is.
